Ayuso also held Goucho star Raymond Tutt to 14 points, stopping
at 12 a string of games in which he had scored over 20 points.

SC Coach Henry Bibby applied constant full-court and half-court
zone pressure, forcing UCSB into 23 turnovers. On the strength
of that defense, USC built a 27-point lead early in the second
half .

Next, USC plays at San Diego State Saturday the 29th at 7:00.

Quotes:USC Head Coach Henry Bibby
It's a young team, a real young team. We have a tendency to
relax and not stay focused. It's the killer instinct we have to
have.

We hold them to 23 at halftime, which is very, very good. In
the second half they score 53...and our defense broke down.

I thought Ayuso kept us in the game. He can do that. And we
have to have it. We talked to him tonight about letting the
game come to him. And he played great defense on Tutt. At half,
he had four points. Larry worked him hard.

USC Guard Larry Ayuso
On hot first half- After I hit the first shot, the ball was
coming off my hand good. And I thought, I've got to hit another
one. I just got into a rythm. All shooters talk about getting
into that rythm.

UCSB Coach Jerry Pimm
Give the credit to USC. They dominated us early. They got after
us aggressively. USC is going to be a good team. They blew it
open early with good execution and good shooting.
